my tatoo

nmulax · 07-07-2006, 02:11 PM

Looks great Longtran... I'm actually thinking of getting something very similar for my next piece.

Color shouldn't have cost more though

in my experience, the detail and size are the determing factors of cost. Tattoo artist charge by the hour, and switching colors really doesn't take but a second.
To answer TL boy, the "wet look" is because your artist will cover it with this tattoo goo, vasaline like substance to aid in the healing process. You need to keep applying it till the tattoo scabs over and heals completely. (the scabbing process is the worst part)

I'll never forget that character in the movie "Sixteen Candles." His name was Long Duck Dong. Do Duck and Dong mean anything?

dood,

that's what happens when it heals. it gets itchy but you can't scratch it right?? if you're talking about something else then i don't think i'm gonna get it cuz im too tired to think(maybe even to think correctly)

Jay_328 · 07-07-2006, 10:42 PM

Looks good, but count me out of that "group buy" rate, I hate needles with a passion. They hurt me

Jay I'm in the same boat: I hate needles, can't give blood for sh*t but I'm cool with tats and piercings. Go figure!
